Cindy was very welcoming. We arrived at 6am that day, but we managed to arrange with her an early check for a modest fee. Her brother brought his laptop and showed us a bunch of places we could visit as well as how to get there.
The apartment was cozy and nice. It doesn't have a kitchen (only microwave and fridge), but we didn't need it as there is tons of stalls nearby that are open all day and some of them late at night.
I like the location. It is near the end of the skytrain line, but I think it's great for long term stay, it is very convenient because you can find anything within 5 minutes walk, from very cheap food, to all sorts of shops and stores (I needed to print some documents and have passport photos taken, it was all 5 minutes away)
